You just need to read the stream into the array. What's the problem with that?

A stream reader is just that, a reader.

You can copy the stream itself to a MemoryStream and use the handy .ToByteArray() which that class provides. If it already is a memory stream, well problem solved.

The question makes no sense. Do you want just to read an array? Any problems?

Solution 1

C#

byte[] result;
using (var streamReader = new MemoryStream())
{
    InputStream.CopyTo(streamReader);
    result = streamReader.ToArray();
}

You mean this, right ?

Solution 2

Try:

C#

byte[] data;
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(@"D:\temp\MyPic.jpg"))
    {
    using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
        {
        sr.BaseStream.CopyTo(ms);
        data = ms.ToArray();
        }
    }
